Emma Watson intros new ‘Noah’ trailer

(Relaxnews) – The British actress gave her Facebook and Twitter fans a first look at the new trailer for Darren Aronofsky’s forthcoming biblical saga, one of the most anticipated films of 2014.

Twenty-three-year-old Emma Watson plays Ila, Noah’s adopted daughter, in the Paramount Pictures feature. The new trailer, uploaded to the studio’s YouTube channel, opens with love scenes between Ila and Shem before shifting its focus to a more sinister theme: Noah’s construction of the ark to escape the great Flood, brought on by the wrath of God.

Adapted from a comic co-written by Darren Aronofsky, “Noah” is carried by the charismatic Russell Crowe. The actor is joined by an all-star cast including Jennifer Connelly, Anthony Hopkins, Ray Winstone, Logan Lerman and Douglas Booth.
